This is Star Wars as you remember it . . . and as you have never seen it before! We’re taking you back to those heady, adventure-filled days following the destruction of the Death Star—when the Empire ruled, the Rebels were on the run, and the galaxy was a dangerous place where anything might happen!

The Imperial Navy has arrived and Agent Cross has been officially told to stand down from his mission overseeing the election of a regent for the young Duke of Serenno. But Cross is not about to allow an innocent boy to be used as a disposable pawn—even if it serves the Empire’s short-term goals.

A traitorous uprising against the fledgling Galactic Empire leaves Emperor Palpatine close to death.

Darth Vader, hand of the new Galactic Empire, must find a new way to dominate the rebellious natives.
